Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2012056309A1] A welder (110, 510) includes a network interface configured to connect to a network. The welder includes a user interface (330, 530) that indicates to a user entities (120, 220) to whom help requests may be sent and receives from the user a selection of an entity to whom to send a help request. A data store (340, 540) stores welder data (344) and entity data (342). The welder data includes welder identification and location information, and the entity data correlates entities to respective communication modes. The welder includes a communication logic (350, 550) that receives signals from the user inter" face indicating the selection and receives from the data store the welder data and the entity data. The communication logic also generates the help request in at least one format corresponding and directed to a communication mode correlated to the selected entity. The welder further includes a processor (360, 560) that causes the network interface to transmit the help request in the network.
